You can rewrite the code underneath the fawn. This episode introduces the Healthy

Adult mode and offers gentle practices for healing two of the deepest fawning

self-compassion, not a quick fix. Listeners can buy the complete book and it is

"Just say no" was never enough. This episode rebuilds boundaries for the AuDHD

nerve is telling you to fawn. The first big step toward breaking free. Listeners

Fawning isn't only social, it's sensory and executive too. This episode covers

sensory fawning, how executive function feeds the fawn response, interoception

and alexithymia, the value of a daily body check-in, and the meltdown-and-

shutdown aftermath that often follows. Practical and body-aware. Listeners can

A compassionate look at the patterns that quietly run your relationships.

Masking and fawning are close cousins. This episode maps where they overlap,

names the "camouflaging tax" that chronic masking charges your mind and body, and

frames unmasking and unfawning as parallel journeys back to yourself, including

the identity crisis that can surface underneath. Compassionate, not clinical.

Beneath every automatic "yes" is an invisible blueprint. In this episode we

explore the five fawning schemas from Schema Therapy, how the AuDHD brain

map for recognizing your own patterns without self-diagnosis or shame. Listeners

Why does your brain say yes before you can think? This episode goes under the

hood of AuDHD fawning: the nervous system's fawn state, autistic social threat

detection, ADHD compulsive compliance, and the collision that makes the two

together far more intense than either alone. It reframes fawning as a

neurological reality, not a failure of willpower. Listeners can buy the complete

Fawning is the trauma response that gets praised. In this opening episode we

explain what fawning really is, why it looks like kindness and agreeableness,

and how the AuDHD brain, where autistic masking meets ADHD impulsivity and

rejection sensitivity, produces a people-pleasing pattern that ordinary advice

can't reach. You'll learn how to recognize your own fawning profile and why "just

say no" was never going to work for a neurodivergent nervous system. Listeners
